OTL: This Trio is Finally Going to Happen

As NFL Free Agency chugs along, we finally saw the Ravens get active on Tuesday, making one fairly expected signing, and one that was a bit of a surprise.

First, who likes pancakes? FB Pat Ricard, or fan-favorite “Project Pat,” will be returning to Baltimore:

While it’s just a one-year deal, it’s an extremely cheap one for Baltimore, essentially under $1.5M on the cap.

For me, and many fans, Ricard is money well spent. His value is higher in Charm City than it would’ve been anywhere else, especially following the release of San Francisco FB Kyle Juszczyk. As Ryan Mink states here, Ricard is a huge part of the Ravens’ identity:

In the afternoon, a few announcements were made. In terms of the roster, the secondary continued to be cleaved:

While Arthur Maulet had a tough season with injuries and wasn’t the first name that jumped to my mind when it came to cuts, the move does make sense financially:

Meanwhile, the organization’s favorite topic – compensatory picks – came back up, with Baltimore officially receiving the maximum of four.

You can’t be mad about that, but as a note, EDC hasn’t been particularly successful with such picks of late:

Still, the more bites at the apple, the better.

At that point in the day, with our LT and FB locked up, a few key departures out the door, and four compensatory picks announced, things looked “fine” for the Ravens:

Then, while I would’ve called the timing of the announcement a shock rather than the name, this news dropped:

That’s right, we’re officially recreating the photo from Lamar Jackson’s legendary MVP award ceremony:

For just $6M, you can’t be mad at this move. Many will talk about Baltimore being the “graveyard” for receivers, but remember, Hopkins is coming in as WR3. In the past, these guys have been touted as the new top target.

Surely, Nuk will be better than Nelson Agholor.

Additionally, in terms of fit in the offense, a jump-ball guy was the only thing missing on the outside (along with depth). Hopkins is still capable of being that guy, and he gets open, too:

Last but not least, he should be a great addition to the locker room. Not only is Hopkins thought of highly as a person across the league, but he’s expressed clear desire to play with Lamar Jackson before. What’s more, it sounds like RB Derrick Henry was a big part of bringing D-Hop to Charm City:

With these moves, the Ravens’ unofficial depth chart, courtesy of Cole Jackson, looks as such:

I highly doubt there will be any splashes in the coming days, but there might be room for some depth signings. In my eyes, CB, G, and ILB would be the top priorities, later addressing Safety, Tackle, WR and those previously mentioned in the draft.

As we head into Wednesday (though I’m sure this list will change by the time you’re reading this), here are the names to watch:
